    Because they posted for 1.5B
  2. Is there any particular reason for randomness? IMO FIFO is much more fair...

    Toxic Trantulas

    1st mission of Khan has a lot of toxics as well. Also you can find toxics in SE corner of RWZ. "targetcustomnext toxic" bind helps a lot.

    I admit that lingering has an advantage during 5TF though. Keeping the -regen on reichsman while you deal with the other Av´s in the room.
    You deal with reichsman first, and all other AVs in the room go down either as colateral or after reichsman was defeated.

    But you can buy raptor pack anytime you want, instead of wasting power pick and maybe few extra slots to make fly workable.
  6. Congratulations, nicely done.

    Was it really 0 defeats, or it just shows 0 if not specified challenge settings?

    I think this thread was originaly started in and later moved from "Player Questions" forum. Hence, Rajani Isa's response.

    Yeah, mostly. You also can throw in Hess 19 merits. For total 4 TFs in under 2 hours.

    About half purples I bought on market were crafted that were sold for less than going recipe price.

    Seriously, if they actually started selling this, I would probably drop my account in an instant. This idea is just... horrible! Is this some kind of joke?! I sincerely hope it is, otherwise is would be very smart to get your mind out of the disgusting gutter it dug itself into.

    Wow, I didn't think a single post could make me be so rude...

    No strippers in my game please, kthxbai.
    Can I haz your stuff?

    Better yet:
    ITF: 26
    LGTF: 37
    5TF: 20

    83 merits x 7 days = 581 merits

    He would give 1st mission of the arc and would refuse to give next mission after 1st mission was completed. He would also be moved to inactive contact tab. It was bugged for both as ouro and as regular contact.

    Edit: At one point, 2 contacts in Brickstown were bugged the same way: Gordon Stacy and Steven Sheridan. One of them was fixed, while another remained bugged. I don't remember which one though. And it is possible that second contact was fixed as well.

    One contact (Gordon Stacy, but I dont hold a grudge ) flat out refused to give me the arc once, and I'm positive I didn't have any story arcs open at the time.
    IIRC, Gordon Stacy was bugged in the past. I don't know if it was fixed though, haven't try him for long time.

    You can do direct trade with another player
  16. You need to clear rikti and krakens after you defeated hydra if any left
  17. I farmed Toxics and Mu Guardians in RWZ. It will be more efficient If you can get few people with you. Bind "targetcustomnext "Mu Guardian"$$targetcustomnext Toxic" helps a lot.

    Empowerment Station buffs are only resistances, recharge speed, recovery, stealth, KB prot, KB buff, travel speed buffs. No defense buffs in there.

    Rikti tend to splatter anything without discrimination (i'm looking at you, Chief Soldiers)
    I didn't have much problem with cims on my NW while running missions or arcs set at +0/x6-x8/y/n. Just kill surgeon first and corner herd the rest.

    The most difficult foes for all my def based toons were rularuu. These shred your defences in no time. I got good progress on my debt badges while farming Overseers in the last mission of Efficiency Expert Pither arc "Alone in the Darque" set for 8.

    Nemesis can be PITA as well with x3-x5 stacked veng, if you not careful enough and kill LTs before minions and bosses.

    Rikti are very easy for def based toons. While Chief Soldier can hit hard, he has to hit first

    Here's GF on the -1 TF problem:

    http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showt...28#post2397828
    It was about -1 fix only. Now all tfs are pegged at +0, the way it was before -1 bug. AFAIK there weren't any redname comment when( if any ) difficulty settings will be available for TFs again

    Though I'm impatient so you could probably do it for less.
    I think, it will be much more expensive to do with current prices.

    Fist of Tyranny is indeed a Mag 10 Stun, and isn't much to worry about.

    The power that is detoggling people is Corrupted Lightning Bolt.

    Ingame info: [Reichsman.Corrupted Lightning Bolt] & just [Corrupted Lightning Bolt]
    100.00 magnitude stun for X.XXs on target.
    LoL, nice catch

    The reason [Soul Storm] and [Ghost Widow.Soul Storm] pull up different numbers is that there are multiple powers called "Soul Storm"--at least four, in fact: Ghost Widow's version, the stalker version, the mastermind version, and the corruptor version. Without any context to tell it which one you mean, the game simply grabs whichever version it runs into first internally.

    If there are in fact multiple versions of Reichsman, [Fist of Tyranny] and [Reichsman.Fist of Tyranny] could still be referencing a different power than the one you expect. Unfortunately, since City of Data is only up I14, there's no easy way to see if that's the case without a lot of trial and error.
    Most likely it is the case.

    IIRC it was stated by Horatio, that there are at least 3 (maybe 4) different versions of Reichsman:
    1. Reichsman in last mission of Khan
    2. Reichsman in last mission of Barracuda
    3. Reichsman in 2nd mission of Khan (maybe the same or different as in 3rd mission of Barracuda)
